Reviews of shows at London theatres

Unborn children in discussion with their mum and the intervention of two sperm fail to lend this 'drama in the womb' the means to successfully re-examine issues surrounding abortion.

Rodney Ackland's play is like spying on a drunken evening through a pub door. For the first hour it is intoxicating but then you just want them all to drink up so you can go home.

An exceptional central performance from the playwright and excellent support from David Shears, brings Borderline Personality Disorder out of the shadows in a funny, fast-moving drama.

An engaging, affectionate celebration of Spike Milligan's genius, blends the comic madness of the legendary comedian with some of the more poignant aspects of his life and personality.

Risqué humour sometimes misfires in a farcically absurd royal romp that feels limp, unsubtle and unrefined, and lacking strong musical numbers to offset those deficiencies.
